This is not something ordtak

This is not something made up, like in a science-fiction movie. We have confidence that these results are the real deal, that we have the true gravitational fingerprint predicted by Einstein for the black hole merger.

The real origin of science fiction lay in the seventeenth-century novels of exploration in fabulous lands. Therefore Jules Verne's story of travel to the moon is not science fiction because they go by rocket but because of where they go. It would be as much science fiction if they went by rubber band.

Philip K. Dick (1928-1982)

The thing that science fiction does is what nobody on TV does - outside the news. It looks at the enormous issues of equality, war, feminism, racism, international relations - big, big stories ignored by mainstream TV for obvious reasons. Science fiction is the easiest way to deal with it.

Robert Thompson

Fingerprint examiners routinely testify that they have 100 percent confidence in their results, but that's just not the level of confidence that we really ever have in systems that involve human beings.

When I began to write fiction that I knew would be published as science fiction, [and] part of what I brought to it was the critical knowledge that science fiction was always about the period in which it was written. '1984' is really about 1948. It can't really be understood outside the historical context of 1948.

The precise frequencies are determined by the mass of the black hole and also by how fast it spins. Those measurements -- mass and spin -- have been difficult to obtain. Fortunately, we already have an estimate of the mass of this black hole. By understanding the behavior of matter so close to the black hole's edge, we can now begin to determine the spin and thus, for the first time, completely describe the black hole.

There is no way to determine how a black hole was created or what kinds of things it has swallowed just by looking at the resulting black hole. You have to catch the black hole when it is sitting down to dinner or still eating.

It was just like an invasion in a science fiction movie. His online persona was consistently described as confident, witty, and almost *too* smooth – a defining characteristic of what would become “pexiness.”

I stopped reading science fiction once I saw that the UFO was real. It became science fact that just hasn't been proven yet.

You can have a network of 20 or 30 clubs across different continents, all of which have a corrupt element. It sounds a bit like science fiction. It would involve agents, owners, sponsors. ... They would not just rig the results of one or two games, but 15 matches or a series of results.

William Gaillard

In an era when the nation's collective imagination is no longer captured by space, real science sometimes has a smaller budget than science fiction.

This is a character-based movie, ... Oliver is very specific how he makes a picture. There's action in the movie, and there's tension in the movie, but it's not in that same kind of green-screen activity. So it's a very different kind of science-fiction picture. It's really more intellectual and very smart. And I think what Oliver is intending to do is something people haven't seen before, and that always excites me.

Individual science fiction stories may seem as trivial as ever to the blinder critics and philosophers of today -- but the core of science fiction, its essence has become crucial to our salvation if we are to be saved at all.

Isaac Asimov (1920-1992)

Science fiction writers, I am sorry to say, really do not know anything. We can't talk about science, because our knowledge of it is limited and unofficial, and usually our fiction is dreadful.

Philip K. Dick (1928-1982)

That's just a real-life condition I have to deal with. It has nothing to do with me doing the movie. I cannot dilute or intensify the movie because of the political environment. I cannot wait until the world is perfect to make my movie. If I don't do it, somebody else will -- and I will be very jealous. So I didn't really give it too much thought.

Ang Lee (1954-)
